The agreement will for the first time, jointly showcase London and Paris to overseas visitors. While, a new initiative called the Paris-London Business Welcome Program will encourage and facilitate the flow of trade and investment between the two cities.
The Mayor of London, Sadiq Khan, said, “London and Paris are two of the greatest cities in the world and we have so much to gain from joining forces. Never underestimate the incredible benefits to be found when major cities do business together. Our great friends in Paris and across the continent are well aware that working closely together remains to our mutual benefit.”
The Mayor of Paris, Anne Hidalgo, said, “Paris and London share common values and willpower. We want to be attractive to companies all over the world. Since the election of Sadiq, our two cities have been working better together. We are developing new exchanges and new projects. All these initiatives will create employment, activity and economic growth. It is a very positive dynamic that the Brexit will not change.”
The tourism agreement will launch in 2018 and focus on key drivers for international visitors to both cities such as culture and heritage, combining the resources of VisitLondon.com and Parisinfo.com.
The Paris-London Business Welcome will build on both cities’ business strengths and follows a statement last year from both Mayors that Paris and London would work more closely together to make the London-Paris’ ‘win-win partnership’ even stronger.
